Running screaming is, I find, often a satisfying (albeit ineffective)
reaction.
But seriously :) Can you try getting back to absolute basics on this?
Run emacs -q, give it enough detail to fire up BBDB, and then see if
you can reproduce the bug. Try it with a BBDB with only one entry in
it, or try it with the specific entry you posted earlier. Basically,
try and cut down to the minimum possible setup to reproduce the bug,
because otherwise you're in macro-debugging hell and I'll have to fend
off the people who want to rewrite it all to make it more
comprehensible. Can't be any good if it's comprehensible, dammit.
Waider. And the attached .sig was, in fact, a random choice by emacs. Heh.

This is going to hurt, isn't it. Maybe I should just run screaming now and
save myself the bother.
